Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it advised that a new paint job be left to set for at least 30 days before being covered with a clear bra?

That's what an agent from Elite Auto Films cautioned me when I asked for a price quote to cover my whole new front bumper that was painted recently because of an accident.

Aerotect guy told me about 10-14 days after is fine.

not plastidip, its a high temp paint that you can buy from Kragen. I just love the matte finish it gives.
